10. MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
10.1
Store the Portable Power in an upright
position.
10.2
Store inside, in a cool, dry place.
10.3
Do not store the clips on the handle,
clipped together, on or around metal, or
clipped to cables. The clips on the Portable
Power are live and will produce arcing or
sparking if they come in contact with each
other. To prevent accidental arcing, always
keep the clips on the storage holders when
not using them to jump start a vehicle.
10.4
If the Portable Power is moved around the
shop or transported to another location,
take care to avoid/prevent damage to the
cords, clips and Portable Power. Failure
to do so could result in personal injury or
property damage.
